I clarified the javadoc where it wasn't mentioned. Sorry, we can't change the
parameters now (I dislike it as much as you do), there are people using this
method and the change would break their applications.

> Hi Devs,
> I've noticed that the angle units are not consistent throughout pdfbox. For
> instance, org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.PDPage.setRotation() needs a angle in
> degrees while
> org.apache.pdfbox.pdmodel.edit.PDPageContentStream.setTextRotation() needs an
> angle in radians...
> The javadoc does not specify which units are taken as arguments.
> It would save devs a bit of time to know that all angles are to be provided
> in degrees or radians.
> Thanks and keep up the good work !!
